MAIAA ApS

maiaa is a curated marketplace for design-led meeting and event spaces, helping companies and teams find venues with character for meaningful, in-person gatherings. We combine carefully selected spaces with a thoughtful booking flow to replace generic, transactional venue sourcing with a more human, design-driven experience. The problem we’re solving: Finding inspiring spaces for meetings and small events is still fragmented and inefficient. Companies often rely on a mix of spreadsheets, emails, and generic listing platforms that prioritize volume over quality. The result is wasted time, inconsistent experiences, and venues that don’t reflect the purpose or culture of the gathering. This affects: • companies that value design, brand, and experience • venue owners with distinctive spaces who lack the right distribution and tools Despite a clear demand for better spaces, the market remains operationally outdated and aesthetically undifferentiated. How we solve it: maiaa brings structure, curation, and clarity to the process. We: • curate a limited selection of character-rich venues rather than listing everything • focus on storytelling, aesthetics, and context — not just capacity and price • provide a request-based booking flow that respects how venues actually operate • integrate experiences and add-ons to make gatherings more intentional and complete The platform is being built to balance design sensibility, operational realism, and scalable technology — with a strong focus on usability for both guests and hosts. Why we started: maiaa grew out of firsthand experience. As a founder, operator, and boutique hospitality owner, I’ve spent years working with spaces, guests, and teams — and repeatedly experienced how broken and uninspiring venue sourcing can be, especially for gatherings that actually matter. The motivation behind maiaa is simple: to create a better alternative for people who care about where they meet, how they gather, and the experience they create together. This is not about building another marketplace — it’s about raising the standard for how physical spaces are discovered and used.

GEIST

1. The Elevator Pitch GEIST is developing next-generation sailing apparel for recreational and lifestyle sailors who want protection and freedom on the water—without the bulk, stiffness, or elitist aesthetics of traditional sailing gear. By combining high-performance materials, real-world testing, and community-driven design, GEIST delivers technical sailing wear that enhances the experience instead of getting in the way. 2. The What: What are you solving? Sailing apparel today is largely designed for professional racers or extreme offshore conditions—resulting in garments that are heavy, rigid, over-engineered, and visually disconnected from how most people actually sail. This creates a gap for: - Recreational sailors - Lifestyle / adventure sailors - Coastal and day sailors who want reliable protection from wind, spray, and weather, but also comfort, mobility, and a modern aesthetic they enjoy wearing. As a result, many sailors compromise—either wearing gear that limits movement and comfort, or using outdoor apparel not built for marine conditions. This problem affects a broad and growing segment of sailors globally, especially as sailing increasingly overlaps with outdoor lifestyle, travel, and community-driven experiences. 3. How GEIST is solving it GEIST designs sailing apparel from the experience outward. We start by deeply understanding how our users move, layer, vent heat, and interact with their gear during real sailing scenarios—not idealized ones. From there, we: - Develop function-led designs focused on mobility, breathability, and smart protection - Use premium 3-layer performance fabrics and components chosen for durability, comfort, and sustainability - Prototype early and test continuously with sailors in real conditions - Co-create features, fit, and details with our community rather than designing in isolation Our first products—a sailing jacket and trousers—are built to be worn actively on the water and comfortably before and after, bridging performance and lifestyle without compromise. 4. Why GEIST exists GEIST started from lived frustration. As a sailor and outdoor enthusiast, I repeatedly experienced how traditional sailing gear interrupted the very thing it was supposed to support—the feeling of being present, capable, and free on the water. Gear was either too stiff, too bulky, too aggressive, or simply not designed for how most people sail today. I realized this wasn’t a niche problem—it was systemic. And it wasn’t being solved because the industry hadn’t truly shifted its perspective. GEIST exists to reimagine sailing apparel from the standpoint of experience, movement, and modern sailing culture. It’s about stripping away unnecessary complexity and designing gear that supports focus, confidence, and enjoyment—so when the wind hits, the world narrows, and the gear disappears.

SomebodyMakeIt

GitHub made it easy for the world to build software together. SomebodyMakeIt does the same for physical products. SomebodyMakeIt is where brands, IP owners, and product creators can turn ideas into real products without building supply chains from scratch through a shared infrastructure for sourcing, collaboration, production, and scaling. Physical product creation is still absurdly broken. If you want to launch something real, you usually need to find the right people, manage scattered files and feedback, coordinate suppliers, handle production risk, and commit money before you know if demand exists. That kills speed, margins, and momentum. It also locks out a huge number of creators and companies that could launch great products if the system were easier. This is a massive market gap hiding in plain sight. We are building the platform where physical products get built. A place where ideas, briefs, collaborators, makers, manufacturers, production knowledge, and execution can live in one system. Instead of every company rebuilding the process from zero, they can plug into shared infrastructure for developing, testing, and scaling products. The more projects that run through the platform, the stronger the network becomes. More data, better matching, faster execution, more repeat production, and more value captured across the lifecycle. We started this because we think it is crazy that software has world class infrastructure for building together, while physical products are still stuck in email, spreadsheets, fragmented sourcing, and expensive guesswork. That should not be true anymore. We are building SomebodyMakeIt because the company that becomes the default place where physical products get built can become incredibly important.

Bricks Performance System

About Us Our startup is revolutionizing how coaches and athletes collaborate, train, and grow. As a SaaS company in the sports tech industry, we’re driven by a passion for empowering athletes and coaches through innovative tools that streamline performance management and athlete development. The sports world today faces a significant challenge: athletes rarely have ownership of their own data. Training logs, performance metrics, and health records are often siloed or controlled by various institutions. This leaves athletes disconnected from the information that could help them make better decisions and grow. At the same time, coaches lack the streamlined tools they need to maximize their time and impact, particularly when working with large groups of athletes. We’re solving this problem by putting athletes at the center of everything we do. Our platform ensures that athletes own all their data and have the power to give permission to specific coaches, trainers, or organizations to access it. This approach not only empowers athletes but also creates a more efficient ecosystem for coaches to guide them toward success. Why We Exist Our mission is twofold: 1. To empower athletes to take control of their own data, giving them the ability to share it with those who can best support their development. 2. To equip coaches with scalable, intuitive tools to manage training and improve athlete outcomes. In team sports, academies, and youth development programs, the lack of efficient tools leads to fragmented workflows, frustrated coaches, and disengaged athletes. By centralizing data, training plans, and communication, our platform solves these issues. Coaches can: - Create and assign workouts, training programs, and schedules with ease. - Track athlete performance, analyze data, and make evidence-based decisions. - Access permissioned athlete data to provide tailored guidance. Athletes can: - Own and control their data, sharing it with trusted coaches or trainers. - Log workouts and performance metrics in real time. - Access a wealth of educational resources through our Athlete Online Education Module, helping them understand critical topics such as nutrition, recovery, mental health, and physical training. Our Vision We envision a future where every athlete has complete control over their journey, equipped with the tools and knowledge to achieve their potential. Our Athlete Online Education Module is a key part of this vision, providing youth athletes with the insights they need to excel. By teaching them how to manage their health, performance, and mindset, we aim to help young athletes improve their chances of going professional while also building strong foundations for lifelong success in sports and beyond. As industry professionals ourselves, we know how transformative the right tools and guidance can be. That’s why we’ve made it our mission to create a platform that not only empowers athletes with their own data but also builds a connected ecosystem where coaches, trainers, and organizations can collaborate seamlessly. By combining athlete-centric data management with an innovative approach to education, we’re unlocking new opportunities for growth, performance, and community building—helping athletes and coaches work better together to achieve their shared goals.
